not to put a damper on your 'find', but;
in u.s.a. there is what is know as 'fcc', in england, i believe it is postal
service, that have regulations regarding 'power output' and range.
i would check further before getting hope up too high.
Clearly you didn't look at the web page, which lists the FCC approvals.
But this is not a TV transmitter, it is an alternative to WiMax for
middle range network connections, over which you could run any of the
streaming protocols. Fedora supports receiving them, presumable it can
send as well.
I suggest going to slashdot and searching for intel+wifi and look at the
distances and bandwidth they got out of cheap WiFi and some antennae and
software fixes. I don't know if you would find it useful, but you should
know about it.
